About the IODS-project
This course is just what I need now.
We are writing couple of articles in psychoacoustics and need to use GAM and PCA analysis. This helps me to go deeper in R programming and brings also better understanding, what my colleague is doing in GAM (General Additive Model). Earlier MOOC courses in statistics have been interesting and useful. This is an excellent continuum.
I have a new GitHub repository dedicated to this project:

Due to largest correlation with dependent variable “Points”, three variables were chosen to the model. The independent variables were Attitude (R=0.44), Strategic learning (R=0.15) and Surface Learning (R=-0.14). Genders were combined in correlation test.
Regression models
For testing, which contributions of chosen independent variables were significant, several possible alternatives were evaluated for the best regression model.

If comparing R squared (R2) values between models, it can be seen that Attitude variable alone explains almost as large amount of variance as if combined with other two of tested variable. Still it explains only a fraction (< 20%) of total variance of this data.
Validity of model
For testing validity of model and assumption of normal distributed samples following tests have been done: Residuals vs Fitted, Normal Q-Q and Residuals vs Leverage. As we can see in Residuals vs Fitted, residuals are reasonable normally distributed. In Normal Q-Q plot we can see that residuals follow linearity well enough (except far ends). In Residual vs Leverage image there are no outliers in isolated positions far from mean. Therefore assumption of linearity and normal distribution can be accepted.
Analysis of Alcohol consumption in two Portugese secondary schools
Data, hyphotheses and selected explanatory variables
The data of this study has been collected from two Portugese second grade schools by using school reports and questionnaires. Aim of this analysis is to find relationships between high alcohol consumption and hypothesized explanatory variables.
Hyphotheses:
- Males consume more alcohol
- It is more common to use alcohol with friends outside home
- Good family relations decrease drinking
- Drinking may cause absences
According to hyphotheses, the selected explanatory variables are sex, go out, family relations and absences. According to first hyphothesis, all analyses have been divided to two groups, females and males.
In dataset there are lot of background variables like demographic, social relationships, parents´education and employment, or living area as well as grades, absences or health.
Full descriptions of study is available here: https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Student+Performance.
All variables and distributions
Observations about selected explanatory variables:
- Sex: Student’s sex, 198 females, 184 males (‘F’ - female or ‘M’ - male)
- Goout: Going out with friends, quite normally distributed, median 3 (1 - very low, 5 - very high)
- Famrel: Quality of family relationships, negatively skewed, median 4 (1 - very bad, 5 - excellent)
- Absences: Number of school absences, multimodal, not normally distributed, median 3 (min. 0 - max. 45)
For alcohol consumption related study, the original data has been modified by combining and averaging weekend and weekdays alcohol consumptions. As result two new variables have been created: alc_use (Likert, 1-5, where 1 = very low, 5 = very high) and high_use (logical, TRUE > 2).
Total number of variables after adding is 35. Number of observations is 382. All variables and their distributions can be seen below.
Distributions and observations of chosen variables
Relationship between alcohol consumption and sex
As seen in table below, in generally, males consume more alcohol. In low consumption group (very low or low = FALSE), 58% were females and 42% males, whereas in higher consumption group only 37% were females and 63% males.
FALSE TRUE Sum
F 156 42 198
M 112 72 184
Sum 268 114 382Relationship between alcohol consumption and going out with friends
Having more freetime outside home with friends increases alcohol consumption in both sexes significantly.
Relationship between alcohol consumption and absences
Although absences increase due to higher alcohol consumption, difference is quite moderate, thus larger in males.
Relationship between alcohol consumption and family relations
Although same tendency occur also in this case, there also might be two-sided correlation between alcohol consumption and family relations. Which of them is more cause or consequence is unclear. Bad relationships in family may lead bigger alcohol consumption, but also drinking may evoke collisions between family members.
Logistic regression
In logistic binomial regression selected explanatory variables (discret or continuous) explain dependent binary (high_use) variable. In this case, dependent variable is categorical, alcohol high use (high_use). It has constructed by classifying aforementioned alc_use variable. Values 1 and 2 of alc_use have been classified to low or false and values 3 - 5 to high or true.
All chosen variables (sex, goout, famrel and absences) are statistically significant. Especially sex is most significant of all and its odd ratio was the highest (2.84). This means that propability for high alcohol consumption in males is almost three times higher than in females. Another strongly influencing variable is “Going out with friends” (goout). None of the included variables include 1 in confidental interval, which means they all have meaningful influence to the model.
Call:
glm(formula = high_use ~ famrel + absences + sex + goout, family = "binomial",
data = alc)

[1] 0.2041885K-fold cross-validation
For testing power of the chosen model, a method called cross-validation can be used. In cross validation sample data has been divided to test and train sections. This means that for example data is divided to 5 equal size parts and 4/5 is used as train data and 1/5 as test data. That is called 5-fold cross-validation. In K-fold CV data has divided to K parts, in this case K = number of observations. So, train data includes K-1 observations and test data 1 observations. In this function this process is circulated so all parts of data is in turn either train or test data.
In this case, K-fold cross-validation gives slighly higher prediction error (0.21) compared to mean prediction error.
[1] 0.214659710-fold cross-validation on my model.
This model have smaller prediction error (0.21) using 10-fold cross-validation compared to the model introduced in DataCamp (which had about 0.26 error). This means that chosen variables in my model predict better high alcohol consumption.
[1] 0.2172775Cross-validation to compare the performance of different logistic regression models
The highest amount of predictors is in my original model introduced earlier. Other models are reduced combinations of original model or added to the model previously unused variables (N=18). In 10-fold cross validation, the smallest penalty loss (0.21) was in my original model. Changing variables increased or decreased penalty loss depending on significancy of chosen variables.

Overview of data
Boston data is included in R-package as a demonstration or example.

As seen in pairs plot, most of the variables are not normally distributed. Most of them are skewed and some of them are bimodal. Correlations between variables are better viewed in correlation plotting, where on the upper-right side the biggest circles indicate highest correlations (blue = positive or red = negative). Corresponding number values are mirrored on the lower-left side.

Standardization
In standardization means of all variables are in zero. That is, variables have distributed around zero. This can be seen in summary table (compare with original summary above).
Variable crime rate has been changed to categorical variable with 4 levels: low, med_low, med_high and high. Each class includes quantile of data (25%).
Train and test sets have been created by dividing original (standardized) data to two groups randomly. 80% belongs to train set and 20% to test set.

In linear discriminant analysis (LDA) only the train set (80% of data) has been analysed. Target variable is the new categorical variable, crime rate (low, med_low, med_high, high). In LDA model all other variables of the data set are used as predictor variables (see Overview of data).
In biplot below can be seen that variable “rad” (index of accessibility to radial highways) has extremely high influence to LD1 and LD2 if compared to the other variables. In biplot all horizontal vectors describes contribution to LD1 dimension (x-axis) and vertical vectors LD2-dimension (y-axis). Sign of coefficient of linear discriminant determines the direction of vector. The longer the vector, the bigger is influence. Most of the vectors contribute both LD1 and LD2. Because in biplot two dimensions are illustrated, directions of most of variables are in different angles between LD1 and LD 2. For example, in the LDA table below the most significant variable of LD1 “rad” has coefficients LD1 = 3.27 and LD2 = 1.05. They are directly readable as coordinates of the arrow head. Similarly the second most significant variable of LD2, “nox” has its head ccordinates in (-0.69, 0.29). LDA1 alone explains 0.95% of model. LD2 explains 3% and LD3 only 1%.

Predictive power of the model
In the test dataset catecorigal crime variable has been removed. In the table below true values of the original test data and predicted values of the test data (crime removed) are cross-tabulated. Total amount of observations is 102 (506/5 +1). In the table on diagonal axis (from top-left corner) are true values (sum = 76) and all others are predicted values (sum = 26). Prediction error is 26/102 ≈ 0.25

In this model euclidean distance matrix has been calculated. Results can be seen in table below. By using K-means algorithm, the optimal number of clusters can be investigated. When TWSS (total within sum of squares) drops significally, it indicates optimal number of clusters. In this case optimal number of clusters is 2 or 3. In the first plotting, data has classified into two and in the second plotting three clusters.

Bonus
Here LDA is calculated with the clusters as target classes. All other variables in the Boston data are predictor variables. In LDA tables and biplots, differences between number of clusters can be seen. Depending on number of clusters, meaningful variables are different, as seen in plottings.

Super-Bonus
Data points are of course in same positions. Grouping differs slightly in main group if colours are coded either by crime or by cluster. In the separate group high-crime is well isolated whereas in clusters, there are two of them. If colours are coded by crime, particularly the high-crime is better gathered to one group.

PCA analysis of human data
Overview of data
Data for this analysis is from the United Nations Development Programme. Two datasets have been combined, Human Development Index (HDI) and Gender Inequality Index (GII). As a result, the new dataset includes following variables:
- Life_Exp = Expected lifetime in years
- Edu_Exp = Expected education time in years
- GNI = Gross National Income
- Mat_Mortal = Maternal mortality per 1000
- Teen_Preg = Teen pregnancy per 1000
- F_Rep_Parl = Female members in parliament (%)
- Edu_Rto_FM = Ratio between females and males in education
- Work_Rto_FM = Ratio between females and males in labour
Most of variables are to some extend skewed. In correlation matrix high positive and negative correlations can be throughout seen. Actually, most of the variables of this dataset correlated strongly. Only F_Rep_Parl and Work_Rto_FM had weak correlations to all other variables.

Principal component analysis (PCA)
In principal component analysis the original multidimensional data is transformed to new space. Most of the cases the number of dimensions has been diminished. The new dimensions are called principal components. Principal components are uncorrelated to each other. The first principal component explains maximum amount of variance in original data. The second component is orthogonal to the first and explains maximum variance left. This principle continues similarly with next components and each of them are less important compared to the previous one. If eigenvalue of the component is smaller than one, it usually can be left out (see PCA tables below). In biplots, PC1 is usually visualized on x-axis and PC2 in y-axis. Arrows and labels show connections between the original features and the principal components (usually PC1 and PC2).
In biplots angles between arrows correspond correlations of the original features. The smaller the angle, the higher is positive correlation. If two arrows are parallel but point to opposite directions, it indicates high negative correlation. 90 degree’s angle means zero correlation (orthogonal = compare to x-axis (PC1) and y-axis (PC2)). The length of the arrows shows the standard deviations of the original features.

Standardization of data and PCA
Standardize the variables in the human data and repeat the above analysis. Interpret the results of both analysis (with and without standardizing). Are the results different? Why or why not? Include captions (brief descriptions) in your plots where you describe the results by using not just your variable names, but the actual phenomenons they relate to. (0-4 points)
Due to PCA is sensitive to the scaling, large variance of the original feature get greater importance compared to a feature with smaller variance. Standardization of the original data equalizes importance between original fatures.
In following table and biplot below, PCA analysis itself is the same as above, but original data has been standardized before calculating PCA.

Multiple Correspondence Analysis on the tea data
Then do Multiple Correspondence Analysis on the tea data (or to a certain columns of the data, it’s up to you). Interpret the results of the MCA and draw at least the variable biplot of the analysis. You can also explore other plotting options for MCA. Comment on the output of the plots. (0-4 points)
Call:
MCA(X = tea_time, graph = FALSE)
